Chapter 319: Vertical Passage

The fat man's description is very apt, and the smell is really like the fishy smell in the cowshed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Gao Chao has been patient, he has no energy to care about other problems, his eyes have been fixed on the front of the passage, he only hopes to climb out of here quickly.

Xia Qing followed behind Gao Chao, she wanted to say something to comfort the fat man, but as soon as she wanted to speak, she was choked by a handful of dust falling from the top of her head, she could only wipe the dust off her face and continue to climb forward patiently.

Only Essetti seemed very alert, of course he also smelled the fishy smell, his eyes became extremely calm and agile in this passage, he began to look back constantly, but he was not looking at the fat man behind him, but looking at the situation behind the passage from a distance.

Another headlamp is on the fat man's head, two headlamps for four people, one at the head and one at the tail.

The fat man with his headlamp noticed that Essetti kept looking back, and he was a little strange, and he couldn't help but look back as well, only to find that there was still nothing behind him.

The fat man was helpless, and shouted at the front: "I said Lao Ai, what's wrong?" Why do you keep looking back? ”

Essetti said: "I didn't see anything, I'm just worried that you will be left behind, my friend, can you still afford it?" ”

The fat man spit out two mouthfuls of dust in his mouth and said, "What's unbearable about this, I think our old man touched the corpse and picked up treasures like this, and I can be regarded as experiencing life." ”

Gao Chao climbed in front, and also heard the fat man's words, he couldn't help but be amused by the fat man, and said in his heart that it seemed that the fat man was in good shape, and he knew that he was joking with the two of them.

Thinking like this in his heart, Gao Chao was a little careless, the slope in front of the passage was a little steep, he didn't pay attention, he felt his hands on the ground in the air, and then his upper body sank, and he almost fell out of the passage.

Fortunately, Gao Chao reacted quickly and supported his body with both hands. Only then did he realize that under him, there was another vertical passage.

That is, in the originally inclined passage, a fork in the road actually appeared. However, the fork in the road was a straight down passage, and because it was very dark all the time, and Gao Chao was distracted and didn't pay attention just now, he almost fell directly into that passage.

Gao Chao was startled and quickly took two steps back. Xia Qing behind him noticed that he was a little strange, and couldn't help but stop.

"Lao Gao, what's wrong?" Xia Qing asked in the back.

Gao Chao wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead before he said, "It's nothing, there is a fork in the road ahead, and there is an extra passage." ”

Xia Qing was puzzled: "Isn't this a passage dug out manually?" How can there be a fork in the road? Are you sure you read that right? ”

Gao Chao sighed and said, "How can you be wrong?" I almost fell off......"

As he spoke, Gao Chao leaned sideways as much as possible in the passage, and then used his headlamp to shine on the vertical passage and pointed it to Xia Qing.

Xia Qing noticed this. Gao Chao's words were true, right in front of him, a round hole didn't look obvious, but when Xia Qing looked in, she couldn't help but gasp.

"Where does this passage lead? How can it be so deep? Xia Qing was a little puzzled.

She and Gao Chao were huddled in the passage, both looking down at the vertical passage.

The passage is indeed very deep, and it is very straight vertically, if Gao Chao really fell just now, I am afraid the consequences will be unimaginable.

Gao Chao was still scared because of what happened just now, but Xia Qing had already noticed some details in this vertical passage.

"Old Gao. Have you noticed that this passage doesn't seem to be the same......" she said, beginning to stroke the inner wall of the vertical passage with her hand.

The light was dim, with only a superb headlamp. So Gao Chao hadn't noticed these details before, but after listening to Xia Qing say this, he realized that the problem Xia Qing was referring to was on the inner wall of this vertical passage, and indeed, the inner wall of this vertical passage was not the same as the inner wall of the passage they were in.

Manually excavated in the channel. Because of the use of a metal shovel, so on the inner wall of the channel, there will be traces of the shovel, touch it with your hands, there will also be a thin flute is very obvious, but in this vertical passage that has just been discovered, the situation is completely different, touch the inner wall of the channel with your hand, and there is no trace left by the shovel, but it is very smooth, as if this passage is completely ground out, which makes Gao Chao and Xia Qing both can't help but be a little strange.

Although Xia Qing is a top student of archaeology, but in the face of this kind of passage that is likely to be a cave robbery, she still seems inexperienced, not to mention superb, his understanding of these things is completely from the fat man, if it weren't for the fat man's family used to be a tomb robber, I'm afraid Gao Chao doesn't even know what a cave robbery is.

So in the face of such a situation, Gao Chao of course remembered the fat man, and it seemed that he still asked him to come over and have a look, and let him give some advice.

So Gao Chao turned his head and thought about calling the fat man and asking him to come over and think about it, but before he could speak, he heard the fat man shouting at the end.

"Boss, run! There are monsters in the back! ”

The fat man's shout was loud and sudden, and there was still a distance between his position and Gao Chao's them, just because he had crawled in this passage before, the fat man was really a little unbearable, so slowly, he had been pulled down a long distance.

In front of him is Essetti, and Essetti has always kept a certain distance from the fat man, one is to urge the fat man to move forward, and the other is to worry about what will happen to the fat man.

As a result, I don't know why, the fat man suddenly came with such a sentence, which startled Gao Chao, Xia Qing, and Aiseti in the passage.

When the fat man shouted just now, Gao Chao could be regarded as having heard what was going on, but he hadn't figured out the situation for a while, so he wanted to quickly ask what was going on.

But when he looked back, he found that it must have been too late to ask, and saw that at the end of the passage, the fat man seemed to be crazy, and climbed up in the passage to this side, looking at him like that, it was simply a locomotive in the passage.

Aiseti was in front of the fat man, although he didn't know what was going on, but he didn't dare to slack off, so he had to rush over to Gao Chao and Xia Qing with the fat man in a panic.

For a while, the fat man's body rubbed against the inner wall of the passage, and kept making a "stinging, stinging" sound, and the passage was full of smoke and dust, choking himself to the point that he couldn't breathe, and kept coughing.

He climbed sharply and looked forward, and saw that Gao Chao and Xia Qing not far away were still stunned, looking at a loss.

So as soon as he was in a hurry, he shouted loudly again: "Old Gao, don't you run?" There's something behind me, quick, run! ”

In the fat man's shouting, there was already a crying tone, and it seemed that he was in a hurry, and Gao Chao heard it more clearly.

What, there's something behind the fat man?

So what is it that scares a fat man like this?
